As one increases the concentration of a colloidal suspension, the system exhibits a dramatic
increase in viscosity. Beyond a certain concentration, the system is said to be a colloidal …

In this article, the effects of size and confinement at the nanometre size scale on both the
melting temperature, T m, and the glass transition temperature, T g, are reviewed. Although …

We present a review of experimental, theoretical, and molecular simulation studies of
confinement effects on freezing and melting. We consider both simple and more complex …

We survey results of computer simulations for the structure and dynamics of supercooled
polymer melts and films. Our survey is mainly concerned with features of a coarse grained …

Near their glass transition temperature T g, supercooled liquids display dramatic changes
regarding the dynamics if subject to geometrical restrictions on the scale of 2 to 200 nm …

Ibuprofen (an anti-inflammatory drug that is a crystalline solid at ambient temperature) has
been encapsulated in MCM-41 silica matrices with different pore diameters (35 and 116 Å) …

In this paper, the morphology and bulk physical properties of 1, 3-dialkylimidazolium bis
{(trifluoromethane) sulfonyl} amide ([(CN/2) 2im][NTf2]) are compared to that of 1-alkyl-3 …

We present the results of molecular dynamics computer simulations of a binary Lennard-
Jones liquid confined between two parallel rough walls. These walls are realized by frozen …

Studies of random close packing of spheres have advanced our knowledge about the
structure of systems such as liquids, glasses, emulsions, granular media, and amorphous …

We relate the dynamical behavior of molecular liquids confined in mesoscopic cylindrical
pores to the thermodynamic properties, heat capacity and density and to the static structure …
